I'm having a great day!

 

That's the new mantra, I tell myself first thing after I wake up in the morning. And honestly, every day can be a great day, what you make of it is up to you. I was tempted to say that my day wasn't so great today, there was a lot of food around at work today and I couldn't resist. But guess what? I'm still having a great day. I identified a weakness of mine, a problem that I have not yet solved and that's great. It gives me the opportunity to work on a permanent solution... and one possibility already arose: I discovered that when I don't see the food the whole day, I don't care about it. The old "out of sight, out of mind" thing. Therefore, I will ask my co-workers to keep the food out of my sight from now on. Although this may not be the perfect solution, it gives me the opportunity to think of a better strategy.
I just read the following: "It is estimated that the average adult brain pattern is eighty-two percent negative." Yikes! I don't want to be part of that anymore!
I have always considered myself a mostly happy person, but over the last few months I have realized that there is still a lot of negativity in my life. It's time to become a truly happy person!
My husband asked me if he could go out tonight to hang out with a new acquaintance of his and after thinking about it for a minute or two, I decided that he should go. I had originally thought to have the whole night to myself and was somewhat bothered that he would be home and "disrupt" my plans, then I changed my mind and decided to enjoy the evening with him, especially since he asked if he could help with anything related to tomorrow's dinner. Now that he talked to his friend, who'll have to spend Thanksgiving all by himself, I realized that I can put the original plans back in place. Woo Hoo!!
